[QUOTE="HyperLollipop, post: 2038342, member: 117268"] Hi everyone! I haven't been on this site in a while... but anyway, I've been looking to buy a new probe thermometer for Herman's enclosure and I was wondering if I need to buy two. For context, I already have two digital thermometers but they are not probes so they do not tell me the surface temps. I am for sure going to buy one for the basking spot, but do I need to buy a second one for the cool side, or is the one that I have okay? Additionally for placement, must it be kept in the basking spot? Because he tends to sit on any thermometer I try to put there and it messes with the readings. Also regarding basking bulbs, I am currently using the Zoo Med 75 watt basking bulb. I noticed the one I had wasn't getting hot enough, so I switched it out with a new one but the temp is even lower than the first one. I want to get a new thermometer before I buy any new bulb to get the exact temps, but would 100w be a good wattage for a 40 gallon tank? Or would it be too hot? Especially during the first two weeks of having the new bulb because thats when it tends to get the hottest. The rest of my questions have been answered from previous questions, so thank you to whoever asked the questions and to those that responded!! [/QUOTE]
